Made L angles to attach the end ribs to the spars. The drawing is incorrect. It says to make 56 and 60 mm L angles. They are too short and do not fit the predrilled holes.
The assembly manual is right. The length of the L angles should be 75 mm. I used a long drill bit to drill through the spars. My electric drill does not fit the space.
Attention. I clecoed the ribs incorrectly. On the pictures the rib goes over the spar. The ribs should go between the spar and the skin.
